Chasing the Sunset at Castle Hill 🏟🌅

I hopped on a motorcycle taxi and headed to Castillo de Morro (San Pedro de la Roca Castle) 🏰, determined to catch the breathtaking sunset. As fate would have it, I ended up having the entire place to myself yet again—my fourth private viewing of the day! 😮 Alas, the traditional cannon-firing ceremony that used to mark the sunset hour has long been discontinued. 💥🚫 Outside the castle gates, there stood a barracks where a group of young soldiers were playfully kicking around a deflated football, their shirts off in the warm evening air. 👕🌬️ Their carefree laughter echoed against the ancient stone walls, adding a touch of liveliness to the otherwise serene scene. As I gazed out at the vast expanse of sea and sky, I couldn't help but wonder: When will this castle, and this city, regain their former glory and once again become a beloved destination for travelers from far and wide? 🤔💭🌏 #Cuba #SantiagoDeCuba #SanPedroDeLaRocaCastle 🌴🐬
